We are borrowing one of the most valuable resources from future generations. Without water, our planet cannot sustain life.
Yet 86% of water is contaminated by man-made activity with large amounts of pollutants, solid waste, micro plastics and large carbon emissions. In agriculture 45% of land is altered by man causing soil erosion, using large amounts of water for irrigation, large use of fertilizers and large amounts of plastic to compensate. The buildings and construction sector accounts for 37% of global emissions.
Our planet is home to an exponential resource of 8,1 billion people. Every year 2.2 billion kg of hair waste is generated globally from hair salons and ends up in landfills causing significant harm upon our environment.
Climate change, pollution and a growing global population has extreme impact on the future availability of raw materials and resources and extreme weather conditions jeopardizing food security and access to clean water for all.
We create naturebased solutions that clean and save water resources, reduce waste and care for our planet with an abundant regenerative material that can remove a waste stream and convert it into a local resource. This resource is transformed into different services and products that have a positive impact on both nature and people by conserving water, decontaminating water and restoring land for futures of water and food security. These solutions are a sustainable scalable alternative to plastic, they have a societal and environmental impact that can scale and be used in rural and urban environments, create job opportunities and a community of sustainable practices.

A Life cycle assessment study has been conducted according to ISO 14040 for both products, showing both of them superior to conventional plastic products used in agriculture and marine preservation.
Both products use hair natural abilities to preserve and decontaminate water, minimising waste and emissions. As an example: In one year, the environmental impact of the deployment of 36 Sea Decontamination Barriers in the Port of Barcelona have removed more than half a tonne of polypropylene products from the port, diverted more than a tonne of hair waste from landfills or incineration, and converted it into valuable resources. The barriers have also extracted more than four tonnes of hydrocarbons and more than 50 g of heavy metals from the port’s waters. This effort has restored slightly over 1.1 billion liters of water, preventing contamination and preserving marine ecosystems. If scaled to a port requiring 500 barriers, the annual impact would include the removal of huge amounts of hair waste, hydrocarbons, heavy metals and polypropylene products. With 3,024 ports in Europe and over 20 million vessels passing through Spanish ports annually, CLIC RECYCLE's solutions are highly scalable and replicable. Fully implemented, this initiative could divert millions of tons of hair waste from landfills, remove substantial amounts of hydrocarbons and heavy metals from oceans, reduce plastic waste, and enhance soil health and water conservation through its biodegradable products.
